Hi list, Since our business is using BIRD (and Debian) a lot I just contact Ondřej Surý and volunteered for help in terms of maintaining the package. My goals are to (try to) get BIRD2 2.0.5 in stretch-backports and maybe BIRD 2.0.6 in the upcoming Debian Fasttrack project. Although it's very early in the process it seemed like a good idea to post this. Maybe someone else is thinking of doing the same or even following the same process?

Bird 2.0.6 fixes a CVE, so you may want to push for that? :) Otherwise, great idea! -Toke

Yes, not only 2.0.6 fixes a CVE, but 2.0.5 has two rather important bugs in filters, so it is a good idea to avoid it now. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
Hey Kees, not yet active in this topic, but we from ungleich were thinking about the same thing. There are some Debian and Devuan maintainers on https://ipv6.chat that might be able to assist as well. Best, Nico Kees Meijs <kees@nefos.nl> writes:
